Beautiful, Comfortable Cabin

Guest: Ken & Connie Q. - Brookings, SD
Date of Stay: 09/05/11 Review Submitted: 01/21/12

The perfect setting and equally beautiful, comfortable cabin made our stay enjoyable and relaxing. It didn't take long to feel right at home. The Norwegian/Viking touches made a fun theme. Lake Clitherall is a lovely clear water lake. Our golden retriever Rusty enjoyed the grounds but especially practicing his launches off the dock. Loved our stay and hope to return. Thanks and God bless. P.S. The lovely flowers and Clitherall Lake towels upon our arrival certainly made for a warm welcome

Thank you for the use of the cabin. Our family had a wonderful time up here. Avery's (12) favorite part was the hammock. Nora (12) and Violet (9) enjoyed swimming off the dock. John (7) liked the hammock. Eva's (4) favorite part was swimming and eating s'mores on the fire. Daddy enjoyed the set up of the cabin and how spacious it was. Momma enjoyed the placement of the fire pit. I could play my guitar and sing while watching the kids fish and swim. Thank you for your generosity.

A Wonderful Retreat

Guest: Jill & Jerry F. - Sioux Falls, SD
Date of Stay: 07/31/11 Review Submitted: 01/21/12

This cabin was a wonderful retreat for us as a couple. It took us literally minutes to feel relaxed and peaceful, which was very much needed for both of us. Our favorite time of day was first thing in the morning, sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee. Next was early evening, same place, with a glass of wine or a cold beer. Our kids & grandson joined use later in the week and they enjoyed everything the cabin had to offer, most of all the campfires at night. We hope to do this next year.

Thank you so much for allowing others to ejoy your family's beautiful cottage. This place is a blessing to anyone who stays!! Our family enjoyed a 2nd visit to Walhall this summer. I think this may have been a "record breaker" heat week--but we proved that with a beautiful, clear lake and sunscreen, you can overcome a little heat! Our kids caught lots of big fish--right off the dock. They also waterskied & knee boarded for the FIRST time--just a small slice of our stay. Beautiful setting!

We have loved our time here. A beautiful introduction to an American experience! Thank you for welcoming us so warmly with fresh flowers! We loved the trees, the loons, the squirrels & chipmunks and the sunsets over the lake. A very happy family wedding experience here in Battle Lake.

Thank you for the wonderful accommodations, much nicer than anticipated! Everything we needed was available and more! The only down side was that we could only say a few days. We hope to have a chance to stay again.

Thank you for welcoming us to your cabin on this beautiful lake Clitherall. We enjoyed our time here as a family – all together – truly a rare and very special time for us. Our father, Wesley came to Fergus Falls 50 years ago this week to lead the college. I was born during that same week. Here at Walhall, all 5 of us kids were able to celebrate this milestone with our mother. We had a wonderful time! David W., New York, NY

We had such a wonderful time at Walhall! Wow, we feel so lucky to have found this beautiful spot. My family and I truly believe there is no other lake in the world like Clitherall. How lucky to have spent our time here. Thank you for this beautiful haven and for all of the things you did to make our stay extra nice. We’ll see you again. Our best to you.

Dale & I enjoyed our 5 wk stay here at Walhall. It was our home away from home. We appreciated all the many pluses -- the welcoming note, flowers and souvenir mugs. The setting is beautiful, the deck wonderful. Practical touches like night lights, flashlights, Kleenex, paper towels and plentiful bath towels also were appreciated! It was a wonderful stay back in Minnesota. Thank You! Laurie & Dale N. Lakeland, FL

Walhall was the perfect place for our family to relax and enjoy spending time together. We loved watching sunsets over the lake, listening to the loons, feeding the friendly chipmunks, roasting hotdogs and s’mores in the fire pit and swimming in Lake Clitherall. We appreciate all of the time and care that has been invested to make Walhall an inviting vacation home. It was great to meet Kurt and to have a chance to visit with old friends in the area. Thank you for providing the ‘heavenly’ setting for a fabulous family vacation! The Oelwein Family. Cedar Falls, IA

We thought Walhall was lovely. Great pictures on the walls. Thanks for the flowers greeting us in the breezeway. I took many pics of the beautiful sunsets - we had awesome weather. we swam a lot and loved the lake it is so clear and no weeds off the dock. We were out in our pontoon everyday exploring a new part of the lake. Battle Lake is close by and lots of other places to go. Very Peaceful. Great fire pit and deck.

The month went by too quickly - The cabin worked very well. Loved the Otters loons chipmunks, woodchuck black mink and fishing from the dock. We had many fires, trips to town for ice cream, donuts from the bakery. A very enjoyable stay.

We are very fortunate that you have this retreat available for us to enjoy at the lake. We have rented cabins in the past and yours has everything a family would want for as great week at the lake. We enjoyed the lake and campfires at night. It has such peaceful surroundings and we are sure all will enjoy as we did here at Walhall! Scott & Lori and Alex & Eric

Your cabin is a wonderful place for a peaceful getaway -- even with the kids! Clitherall Lake is one of the cleanest lakes we have ever seen! All the personal touches (ketchup, mustard, soaps, etc.) are really great for quick stays! Very clean too! It was a wonderful time and we hope to visit again soon! Maybe for some cross-country skiing in the winter. Thanks again, Anna, Randy, Sam, Emma and Jacob Shay

This cabin is great – a very peaceful place to spend a family vacation. Highlights consisted of fishing off the dock with the kids, the campfires at night where we ate plenty of s’mores. Going into Battle Lake and swimming at the beach. Playing putt-putt golf and stopping at Grannys Pantry for a cone or dish of ice cream. It is just a great place to kick back and forget about all the stress life can produce. A special thanks to Kurt, Jacki, Scott & Terri for supporting a soldier returning from a tour of duty in Iraq. Your generosity is greatly appreciated and it makes me proud to serve for people like you.Joe, Amy, Maddie, Nate & Sophia Clay
